Brother's Road to Promotion

In the pitch-black deep mountains and dense forests, the not-so-bright fire was like a guiding light in Jiang Yu's eyes.

The light that was supposed to be farther and farther away once again illuminated Jiang Yu's feet and dispelled the darkness around him. In Jiang Yu's eyes, the fire was more dazzling than the sun in daytime.

The man stopped two steps away from Jiang Yu and looked at Jiang Yu.He was obviously short and thin, and even had a moving snake tail coiled around one leg. He stood quietly in the dark woods, as if he was in an abyss, but he still stubbornly didn't make a sound.

Looking at the man who turned back, the torch in his hand fell into Jiang Yu's eyes like starlight, making his eyes sparkle.

Jiang Yu opened his mouth, wanting to say something, but in the end he didn't ask for help.

Of course he wouldn't be so stupid that he didn't understand why the other party turned back, but he still didn't dare to ask him for help.Although I don't know why the man appeared alone in the mountains at this time, just looking at his clothes, he must be of extraordinary status.

The brother of the Merchant House is still afraid of snakes, insects, rats and ants, how can he expect this person in front of him to be like him, even though he hates them, he can still calmly kill them without blinking an eye.

He was very grateful for the man's return, and Jiang Yu was very content, "Can you wait for me for a while, my lord, I can deal with this snake right away."

Hearing this, the man still didn't speak, but held the torch and didn't move.

Jiang Yu took it for granted that he agreed.

With the light, Jiang Yu also saw the patterns on the wild animal under his feet, and couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief, but it was a larger cauliflower snake.

The cauliflower snake is non-venomous, and Jiang Yu saw villagers living at the bottom of the mountain catch it, and he himself found a hut in the mountain to avoid the search of the servants, and he encountered and caught it more than once.

Now with the torch lighting, Jiang Yu was able to pinpoint the position of the snake's head, and threw the stone in his hand towards the head with incomparable accuracy.

The man's outer shirt looked abnormally wide and empty on Jiang Yu's body. In order to facilitate the movement, the cuff was lifted up by one hand, exposing the thin wrist, and the redness and swelling on the wrist were also abnormal under the dim firelight. conspicuous.

Because one leg was entwined by the thick and ferocious snake tail, Jiang Yu's movement of bending over was quite awkward, and his thin body wobbled unsteadily with his movements of swinging stones, looking as if he would fall down at any time generally.

The fire that illuminated Jiang Yu's feet became brighter, Jiang Yu smelled the faint aroma of wine, and the familiar white clothes embroidered with cloud patterns appeared under his nose.

There was a pause in Jiang Yu's hands, his arms tightened, and he was pulled straight up by a force.

As Jiang Yu got up, the man in white who was close at hand squatted down, and pulled out a half-foot-long dagger from nowhere. Looking at the blade, it seemed extremely sharp. The head was chopped off to one side.

Jiang Yu exhaled nervously, almost thinking that he was about to splash blood on the spot.

The body and head were separated, and the snake tail wrapped around Jiang Yu's legs and feet gradually came loose, and with a little force, Jiang Yu broke free from it.

"Thank you, young master." Jiang Yu breathed a sigh of relief, and quickly thanked him.

Although the other party's attitude was a little arrogant, but he met by chance and helped him many times. He was really grateful.

"Why didn't you say it?" The man frowned and wiped the dagger on the leaves beside him, put it back in his boots, and looked at Jiang Yu complicatedly with his narrow and sharp eyes.

When he was on the small boat, Jiang Yu felt that the man was quite tall. Afterwards, he stayed two steps away from him and didn't feel much. Now when he got closer, he realized that the man was almost a head taller than him. His shoulder position.

Although Jiang Yu has just reached the age of curly hair, he is ready to marry like a woman and a hairpin, but his elder brother always rises later than a woman. At this time, he still looks like a teenager, but no matter how tall he grows, it is impossible for him to reach the man in front of him. stature.

The figure in front of him is already taller than most men.

There is too much difference in height between the two, and there is a natural air of superiority in the man, even though the other party's tone is soft, Jiang Yu still feels a little nervous.Resisting the urge to back away, lowering his head to avoid his gaze, Jiang Yu said in a low voice, "I'm causing you trouble, Young Master."

He didn't answer the other party's question, but apologized to the man, which might as well be answering the man's question.

Although he had changed his clothes, Jiang Yu's appearance was always in a state of embarrassment. His wet black hair was disheveled, and his unfit clothes hung loosely on his body. At this time, he looked more like standing obediently with his head down. A poor and young abandoned dog.

No spies from another family would be in such a miserable state, the man thought to himself.

"Song Yu." The man spit out two words in a simple manner, turned around and continued walking down the mountain.

Jiang Yu was only stunned for a moment, then understood what he meant, looked up at his tall back, curled his mouth, and raised his heels to follow him.

Probably in his short 15 years of life, he was trapped in the back house, facing those individuals who came and went, and received too little kindness. He is condescending and careless, but he should be... a good person to help a stranger like him over and over again!

Although it is extremely unfriendly, at least it is better than those sisters who are full of honey and swords. Thinking about it this way, the little fear that had just arisen has receded a little.

Chasing after Song Yu for two steps, Jiang Yu stopped abruptly, turned his head back, broke off a slightly thicker branch from a nearby dwarf tree, and inserted the thick and long cauliflower snake roll rolled up.

"What are you doing?" Song Yu heard the footsteps behind him moving away again, and turned to look behind him.

After seeing the scene clearly, he said to the young man who was chasing after dragging the dead snake with some disgust, "Throw it away quickly."

Jiang Yu was a little hesitant, because he was caught back after 4 months of fleeing, and because he learned from the maid that he was actually going to be sent to fill in a house for a man who was old enough to be his grandfather, where would he be able to eat? thing.

He came back from the dead and walked the mountain road for more than half an hour. He was already hungry.

At this moment, I don't know how long we have to go, and whether there is food to fill his stomach. Jiang Yu looked at the cauliflower snake that lost its head and its tail was still swaying, and felt extremely reluctant. It was disgusting, but it was all Meat!

"My skill at roasting snake meat is pretty good," Jiang Yu cautiously raised his head to meet Song Yu's disgusted gaze, "Master, don't you really want to try it?"

Jiang Yu was in a mess, holding the messy fabric in one hand, and dragging a hemp rope in the other hand to wrap a few circles of snake corpses covered in patterns. With such a match, he looked like a ferocious savage who stole the clothes of a foreigner. Where is the pitiful look just now.

I really went astray!

"You are like a deserter at this time." Song Yu thought so, fearing that the other party would not know what a savage was, so he taunted him in another way.

Of course, Song Yu's tone was still teasing and unhurried.

Datong Mansion is prosperous and prosperous, and now the times are good. Jiang Yu has spent most of his life in the Jiang family's inner house. He knows what a deserter is, but he has never seen it before.I only know that those who fled famine are like beggars, with ragged clothes, yellow and thin faces, and because they cannot survive in their hometowns, they have to flee to foreign lands to seek food.

Obviously, this is not a good word, but thinking about my current situation, it seems that it is not bad.

He nodded in agreement and said, "Young master is right."

The meaning of approval on Jiang Yu's face did not seem to be fake, Song Yu choked, this look of not being ashamed made Song Yu a little troublesome.

"Little devil..."

"Young Master, my name is Jiang Yu."

"Yu?"

"Extra surplus."

"It seems that you still have some self-knowledge."

"Young Master said so." Jiang Yu is still indifferent. Ever since Jiang Yu began to learn how to read, he has recognized the meaning of his name. He is the most redundant person in the entire Jiang family, and after a long time, there is nothing good care about.

It's just that sometimes he also thinks, why should there be a brother?

He is neither as soft as water like a woman, nor as strong as a man. What is the meaning of brother's existence?

Just to continue the bloodline?Then why does a brother with low fertility like him exist? It seems that there is no meaning for existence other than being a servant of the Israelites.

Thinking about it this way, Jiang Yu was still a little bit lost, and said with a bowed head, "It's really superfluous."

Looking down at the wet, swarthy head, Song Yu flicked his sleeves impatiently, "It's up to you."

After speaking, he took the torch and continued to walk down the mountain.

casual?What casual?

Jiang Yu was taken aback for a moment, then overjoyed, "My lord, do you allow me to take it with you?"

"You're not a servant in my mansion, so it's up to me to take care of you."

"Young master, I am very skilled, so I won't lie to you."

"Master, I don't need that bite."

"Ow..."

"Look at your feet when you walk, and I still need my young master to teach you."

"Ow..."

"..."
